We're officially in the Jennaissance, as Jennifer Coolidge has been crushing it on The White Lotus, being hilarious in interviews, and even being parodied on SNL. Last night (January 10), she gave another standout performance — this time by giving the funniest speech at the Golden Globes and making The White Lotus creator Mike White cry in the process.
Coolidge won Best Supporting Performance in a Limited or Anthology Series or Television Film for her iconic role as Tanya McQuoid-Hunt in The White Lotus. She devoted most of her speech to thanking White, crediting him with reviving her career.
Giving away a key spoiler from the show, she said, "Mike White, you have given me hope, because you have given me a new beginning. Even if this is the end, because you did kill me off, but it doesn't matter. Even if this is the end, you sort of changed my life in a million different ways, and my neighbours are speaking to me — things like that. None of those people — I was never invited to one party on my hill, and now everyone's inviting me!" She swore during the speech, resulting in her being censored for TV.
She earned howls of laughter from the room, but White was visibly tearing up while trying to maintain his composure. Watch the very memorable speech down below.
